    Dibang

    Incorrect Answer
    Explanation:

    The Teesta rises from Zemu glacier in Sikkim. The Teesta River drains the entire state of Sikkim and a part of Darjeeling Hills.

    • It is known as the lifeline of Sikkim. The Teesta flows along a very deep gorge which divides north Bengal or the hills of Darjeeling into two parts-Tiger Hill range in the west and the Kalimpong Hill range in the east.
    • It joins the Brahmaputra on its right-bank in Bangladesh.

    Hence option 2nd is correct.
